Broken

Close up photo of exposed tree roots.

Tangled root systems,
complex web of emotions;
exposed when life breaks.

Fiery

close up photo of a bright yellow-orange torch lilly

Torch lily burns bright,
blooming in all its glory—
shadowed by tall trees.

All quiet

Photo of a New Zealand Flax plant in the forefront with a heavy fog in the background masking the Auckland coastline nearly entirely.

Cool spring afternoon
rain stops and the fog descends—
perennials bloom.

Vibrant

Close up photo of a bougainvillea tree with the sun filtering through its flowers, making them glow a deep red.

Bougainvillea—
under the sparkling spring sun,
bleeding ghoulishly.

Ghost fog

Photo of Auckland city high rise buildings clouded in fog just after rain.

The foggy monster
swallows high-rises wholly—
seasonal weather.
